How do I tell you...

by Sarah-Louise   Mar 23, 2005


I came back from the clinic,
Hung my coat on the hook,
And as I looked in the mirror,
The reflection looked shook.

I never believed that it took,
Just that one single time,
Now there's something inside me,
Which is both yours and mine.

I stare at my stomach,
Someone's growing inside,
But how can I tell you,
Will it shatter your pride.

I know you don't love me,
And that night was for fun,
You said the games ended,
But it's only begun.

And 'cause we don't talk now,
After all that I said,
I don't want to sound like I'm,
Trying to get back in your head.

Wes, I'm having your baby,
But I cannot tell you,
'Cause I know you'll reject it,
After all we've been through.

But I will always love you,
And I'll love this baby,
I wish you could be here now,
Not just in memory.

So next time you see me,
I'll let my bump show,
The one you helped make,
But you'll never know.

    Awww Sarah, I wish you the best of luck with this baby. In some ways i think you're lucky, coz i got pregnant last year but i made the terrible mistake of having an abortion. Something i deeply regret now.
    Great poem as usual. Look after yourself and the little one
    Take care
